Why read it?

1 author picked The Scandal of the Kingdom as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Dallas Willard has shaped a lot of my thinking over the years, encouraging me to use my whole mind to figure things out and make the world a better place. When I saw that he had a new book posthumously, I got it right away. It's a neat format in which he works through the various parables of Jesus and unpacks principles and clarity from them.
